What I find interesting about this is that we had a similar situation in the UK with Liz Truss. We had a PM who announced a surprise budget of tax cuts, which ok, were a little bit stronger than ones the Tories had done previously. This caused a shock to the bond markets, cost quite a lot of money and she was immediately removed from office by her own party and her budget cancelled.
Trump has caused chaos and cost the US billions with his tariff talk, alienated most western allies, damaged the US MIC enormously and caused deaths in Ukraine by cutting support. The damage done is incalculable, it is not in the same universe as the damage caused by Liz Truss. The only thing that makes sense is that Republican party want America ruined and they aren't going to stop unless they are forced to. I think what Trump has already done should qualify as treason on the basis of undermining the USA and supporting its enemies.
So, do you actually believe the stupid shit you're saying, or are you getting paid for this?
SPY dropped a bit yesterday, and it's up a bit today, it's hardly plummeting. What's dropping is the dollar, it's already worth 5 cents less against GBP in the last week.
and if you actually want a PC for gaming on, a discrete gpu (eg: 7900xt) is going to be at least 3x faster at throwing polygons around than the 8060S. This thing is definitely better for AI workloads than gaming.
We haven’t seen how they plan on monetizing it yet
Enshittification once they have enough users, that's usually how these things go. I swear we don't learn.
The judge still has tools other than incarceration. Since the crime was fraud, how about a hefty fine? How about community service? In what world would any other defendant have received a sentence of literally nothing at all?
they're up to something in Greece?
I can’t help, but wonder, if Trump had just said, “yeah I paid a porn star to sleep with me. What of it? Who cares?” Then none of this would’ve happened as far as I can determine.
The issue wasn't that he lied about it, as I understand it, the issue was that he claimed the money he paid to Stormy Daniels as a tax deductible campaign expense.
Michael Cohen, well-off white guy and lawyer who arranged this actual crime for Trump already went to prison for it years ago, so that's clearly not true.
Why did it take 8 years to convict Trump of the same crime? Michael Cohen finished his sentence and was released in 2021.
They're also some of the smartest people on the planet. America is suffering the same problem we all are - right wing shitbags and hostile nations weaponising our stupid people through social media.
The detention centers are private and run by large corps, which receive taxpayer money for every person detained. They're detaining people because they get paid to do so!
